I dunno, I started tilting the camera a while ago, just so I could cut off things in the shot or to fit something else in, I have like a really good friend who also does that a lot too.  Also I'm a big fan of Winnogrand.
the background lighting was kinda intentional though, I guess you can't tell :(, but I was trying to make him just like an outline or something.
Anybody else have any more criticism?  I need to get back into shape.

I love you giving the paparazzi a taste of their own medicine.

Anyways, you always have really great pics to look at.

for all of my recent pics, go here
I just got six rolls developed (for free!) with more to come, these are just the rolls I've had with me forever, mostly road trip pictures in Taiwan, Colorado-Boston, and Canada.

the best picture is the one of the girls in short skirts on the corner. there's a lot of movement, a lot of character, and a lot of room for interpretation. there's so much going on here, i kind of love it. the other stuff doesn't really compare to your other work. i'm not so much affected by a picture of a bird on a lamppost or a single car in a parking lot unless it's captured in a way that i've never seen it before, you know? i am partial to pictures of humanity, and you're very good at capturing little moments in busy cities. hope to see more from you soon, petey boy.

i agree with bonz. i would also like to add one more to his list of pics that are least effective.. pics taken as you fall over.

I really like these pictures. The one with the baby is just perfect.

Was that last one a happy accident? Cause it is strikingly good
